Cryogenic vessels — Hoses
1 Scope

This document specifies design, construction, type and production testing, and marking requirements

for non-insulated cryogenic flexible hoses used for the transfer of cryogenic fluids within the following

range of operating conditions:
— working temperature: from −270 °C to +65 °C;
— nominal size (DN): from 10 to 100.

End fittings for mounting of any couplings are within the scope of this document, but the couplings are

subject to other standards.

It is intended that the hose be designed and tested to satisfy a rated pressure. Hoses may be then

selected with a PR equal to or greater than the maximum allowable pressure (PS) of the equipment to

which it is to be used.

oSIST prEN ISO 21012:2021
ISO/DIS 21012:2021(E)

A braid is commonly fitted over the hose. This generally consists of woven wire in one or two layers

in stainless steel, or a high strength copper alloy. It may have a cover that shall be compatible with the

surroundings and with the conveyed fluid.

The design shall ensure that pressurization, or corrosion, between the inner tube and the outer braid or

sheath is prevented.
End fittings shall be designed as a rigid seal to the ends of a hose to ensure:
— a tight fit to the hose;

— a strong joint between the braid, hose and end fitting to stabilize the hose against elongation at

rated pressure.

Fittings for corrugated metal hose assemblies shall conform to EN ISO 10806:2003.

An area for marking shall be provided on one of the end fittings or on an attachment.

All joining methods used in corrugated hose assemblies shall be qualified. Manual welds shall be in

accordance with applicable standards.
A typical cryogenic hose assembly is shown in Annex A.
4.2 Materials

All materials shall be compatible with the fluid conveyed and shall be controlled by the manufacturer of

the hose assembly by a specification ensuring control of chemical content and physical properties, and

quality at least equivalent to an internationally recognized standard. Materials for the manufacture of

corrugated metal hose assemblies shall be selected on the basis of their suitability for fabrication, e.g.

cold forming and welding, etc. and for the conditions under which they shall be used. In addition, the

following requirements shall be met:

— end connections and couplings shall be made of materials compatible with the other materials of the

hose assembly;

— a material is compatible when it does not lead to any violent reaction (ignition, etc.) or any slow

reaction with the conveyed gases, and permeability shall be appropriate for intended use;

— a test certificate providing the chemical content and physical property test results shall be provided

with the hose assembly.
The materials used in a cryogenic hose assembly shall:

— maintain sufficient ductility at the rated minimum temperature (as specified in EN ISO 21028-1:2016);

— be oxygen compatible, if specified for oxygen or nitrous oxide service (as specified ISO 21010:2017);

— any austenitic stainless steel hoses shall be annealed after formation for hydrogen service;

— contain less than 65 % copper, in the alloy as well as the soldering materials, if it is specified for

mixtures containing acetylene.

A list of acceptable materials is given in Annex E (Table E.1 for European materials, Table E.2 for non-

European materials).
4.3 Cleanliness

Hose assemblies specified for all cryogenic fluids shall be cleaned in accordance with EN ISO 23208:2019

to remove hydrocarbons, moisture, particles or other contaminations from inside the hose assembly.

The burst pressure shall be at least three times the rated pressure at ambient temperature. Failure

shall occur only in the body of the hose and braid and not in their connections. See 5.3.3 for burst test.

4.4.2 Pressure cycles

Hose assemblies shall have a minimum cyclic life of 10 000 cycles when repeatedly pressurized from <1

bar to their rated pressure in accordance with 5.3.1.
4.4.3 Bending test (optional, upon request of purchaser)

Hose assemblies should have a minimum cyclic life of 10 000 cycles when repeatedly flexed at their

rated pressure in accordance with 5.3.2.
NOTE Actual life cycle of hose will depend on actual operating conditions.

This test is only required if the flexible hose is subject to multiple wide/significant moves when under

pressure.
4.4.4 Resistance to abuse

Hose assemblies should have sufficient resistance to deterioration of the braid when they are dragged

on the ground. For additional protection of the braid, a coil can be used.

Hose assemblies shall withstand a crushing test, simulating a person stepping on the hose assembly, in

accordance with 5.2.6.
4.4.5 Low temperature resistance

All components of the hose assemblies which become cold during operation shall retain their toughness

at the lowest design temperature.
4.4.6 Leak tightness
Hose assemblies shall be leak-tight in accordance with 5.2.5.
4.4.7 Electrical properties

Hose assemblies specified for flammable products shall be electrically conducting from one end to the

other (electric resistance less than 25 Ω).
5 Hose sample tests
5.1 General

The hose test samples shall be representative of production. In case of a connection breaking pre-

programmed system, testing will be performed on flexible hoses without these connections. The hose

sample test procedures shall include:
a) inspection and non-destructive tests:
— inspection: dimensions, cleanliness, material identification and marking;
— tests: pressure test, leak and crushing tests;

oSIST prEN ISO 21012:2021
ISO/DIS 21012:2021(E)
b) destructive tests:

— pressure cycling, bursting test, rolling bend cycling and examination of sectional cut.

The tests shall be recorded in a written report which shall be retained for 10 years after the last hose

has been placed on the market.
Four sample hose assemblies (A, B, C and D) are necessary to perform the tests.
The tests and order of tests are summarized in Table 1.
(The numbers 1 to 5 give the order of the tests).

Examination of a sectional cut — — 4 —

The hydraulic bursting test shall be carried out to qualify all DN hose assemblies.

When a hose assembly with a given DN and a given rated pressure, P , has been successfully sample

tested, any hose assembly of the same type, having:
— a rated pressure P ;
and
— a nominal diameter up to 1,25 DN

can be considered as approved except each DN hose assembly shall be hydraulic burst tested.

A hose assembly is said to be of the same type when the design and its characteristics are similar to the

tested hose; similarity is defined as having the same
— materials;
— welding method;
— type of corrugation (shape and method of manufacturing);
— method of joining (hose and end fitting);

— braid (type of braiding, i.e. calculated – according to diameters to obtain the same maximum tensile

stress in each wire, same materials, same welding method).

Bend radius and minimum hose length for sample hose assemblies are defined in Annexes B and C.

Hose assemblies used for crushing test and destructive tests shall not be placed on the market.

5.2 Non-destructive tests and inspection
5.2.1 Documentation of materials

The materials, assembly methods, weld procedures and welder qualification for the manufacture of the

hose assemblies shall be identified and recorded.
5.2.2 Dimensional check

The outside diameter and total length of hose assemblies shall be measured, as delivered, to check

conformity with the drawings.
5.2.3 Cleanliness check
The hose assembly shall satisfy the requirements of EN ISO 23208:2019.
5.2.4 Pressure test

All flexible hose assemblies shall be subjected to a hydraulic pressure test, at room temperature (20 +/-

10) °C, equal to 1.5 x the rated pressure. The pressure shall be held for a minimum of 3 min. there shall

be no leaks. Under pressure, the overall length shall not increase by more than 3%.

Where austenitic stainless steel comes into contact with water, the chloride content of the water and

time of exposure shall be controlled so as to avoid stress corrosion cracking.

As an alternative to the hydraulic test, it is also permissible to perform a pneumatic test, at the same

pressure, provided that the necessary safety precautions are met (e.g. perform the test in a cage).

5.2.5 Leak test

The hose assembly shall be leak tested by immersion in water and pressurized with gaseous nitrogen

or air to the rated pressure.

The pressure shall be maintained for a minimum of 5 min. There shall be no leaks detected (i.e. no release

−4 3

of bubbles of gas in water). This corresponds approximately to a leak rate of less than 10 Pa m /s.

Other methods of equivalent or greater accuracy may be used for standard hose assemblies. Hose

assemblies specified for more stringent applications may have more stringent leak requirements (e.g.

helium leak testing under pressure).
5.2.6 Crushing test

This test is only carried out for hose assemblies made without corrugated stainless steel.

This test shall be performed on hose assemblies to simulate risks of damage when walking on a hose.

The hose assembly shall be held between two 200 mm × 200 mm rigid plates and a force of 1 000 N

shall be applied 10 times at the same location in the middle of each flexible hose.

The hose assembly shall then be examined to check if there is any pronounced damage caused by this

test (a reduction in diameter greater than 20 % and appreciable damage to the braid is unacceptable).

After that, the destructive tests shall be carried out on these same hose assemblies.

5.3 Destructive tests
5.3.1 Hydraulic pressure cycling

This test shall be carried out on one hose assembly of the tested lot with pressure cycling from 1 bar to

rated pressure, at room temperature and at a frequency of <10 cycles per minute.

The test shall be stopped at 10 000 cycles and the hose assembly be subjected to a hydraulic burst test.

There shall be no leakage in the hose during the test.
5.3.2 Rolling bend cycling test
5.3.2.1 Corrugated metal hose assemblies

A rolling bend cycling test shall be carried out with the flexible hose assembly maintained at its rated

pressure, as described in Annex B.

The test hose assembly shall undergo 10 000 cycles without failure and then be subjected to a leak test

(leak rate higher than the one required in 5.2.5).
There shall be no leakage in the hose during the test.
5.3.2.2 Hose assemblies constructed from non-metallic materials or composites

A rolling bend cycling test shall be carried out (with the addition of some induced torque and

intermittent thermal shock) with the hose assembly maintained at its rated pressure as described in

Annex C.
The test hose assembly shall undergo 10 000 cycles.
5.3.3 Hydraulic bursting test
The tested samples shall be pressurized
